Anyone have a bike rack on their sedan?
I need a bike rack to haul 2 road bikes around but DO NOT want the kind that hangs on the trunk. I would like the kind that goes on the roff.
I looked at the car today and don't see any attachment points like I had on my Audi. So I thought I would ask here before I go on a search.

I also had a Yakima rack on mine...but with the fairing. As posted, without it, it was noisy, but with the fairing, it wasn't too bad (except when I opened the sunroof).
I've had the rack on for about 2 yrs, but I just noticed there are slight indentations at the top of the door openings. On the rear doors, these indentations would be perfect for the Yakima clips, but on the front, the indentations are too rearward.
By the way, I actually thought the rack w/ the fairing made the sedan a lot sportier when viewed from the front.

A good, quality rack should fit nice without scratching any paint. Nice ones aren't cheap, though. They also look ugly when not in use and can damage the paint if crud gets underneath the pads. You might want to try putting the bikes in the trunk. Lay down something to prevent grease stains and get quick release skewers for both wheels. You can put the tires in trash bags and throw them in the back seat.
